Sold a White's for double what I paid for it!
Nearby park district was looking for a metal detector to help find the posts the bases go in. They have 'No Metal Detectors Allowed' signs posted at every park so I gouged them on the one I sold them
 On the other hand, after putting a fresh battery in and the gallon of gas I burned up and back I probably broke even. Yah see the White's was a, well, look for yourself. Bought it for $5, sold it for $10  PS - got the Superintendent of Maintenance to sign the back of his card that states I can MD in the tot lots and ball fields. Just stay of the grass  TR Discriminator II (Sears model 596460)
